Chorus:
   C#m      E      F#       C#m F# E
It doesn't have to be that way
   C#m      E      F#       C#m F# E
It doesn't have to be that way
 C#m          E      F#       C#m     F#
Girl you're chasing rainbows but you cry when
          E
its not there
    C#m     E      F#      C#m F# E
It doesn't have to be that way

F#
I am a top star
F#m
I feel a racecar
E
I feel the rain on my flesh
F#
The holes have darkened
F#m
The dogs are barking
E
But they ain't bitten me yet
F#                    F#m
You give up when the game begins
 E                              G#m
Looking like something that the cat dragged in
    G                  D
I shout but you can't hear me

Chorus

You wake up and your heart is broken
Its all broken again
You feel roped in
The trailers smoking
But there's a hole in the fence
I don't know how you stand the pain
Hoping on things that will never change
I shout but you don't hear me

Chorus - x2
